DP has been having severe stomach pains for a few weeks, coupled with enlarged lymph glands in his abdomen. Sent for biopsy last week, it has come back but all they can say is that it is showing malignant cells, but they don't think its Lymphoma. We have to wait until they have done more tests on the biopsy. What a wait.....if malignant cells have been found does this definitely indicate cancer. He is 38, healthy and fit.
The pain is constant but is worse when he eats certain foods, eg onions, spicy food. Which made us think it was Crohnes but the doctor is saying today that malignant cells have been found in the lymph node biopsy has thrown us completely.
Have to wait another 5 days without knowing exactly what this thing is. Can anyone shed any light?
